Question regarding the Phoenix Case still dropping frequently

So operation Phoenix has ended for quite a while now and is now replaced by operation Breakout. The operation before Phoenix was Bravo. Once operation Phoenix was introduced Valve changed the frequency of the operation Bravo case drops. As a result the price of these cases has been rising slowly since the change.

I was wondering when Valve is going to do the same for the operation Phoenix case. At the moment they are still a frequent drop and as a result the price of a Phoenix case is really low due to the high supply. Even though operation Phoenix ended and has been replaced by operation Breakout the Phoenix case remains to be a frequent case drop.

So when is Valve going to change the drop chance for the Phoenix cases?

TL;DR Operation Phoenix ended but the Phoenix case is still a common case drop. This is not the case with the operation Bravo Case.

Wow I seee this same thread every week and respond to all of them, did you even search?

CASES WITH SKINS DESIGNED BY VALVE HAVE THEIR DROP RATES GREATLY REDUCED AFTER A WHILE. CASES WITH SKINS DESIGNES BY THE COMMUNITY DROP AT THE SAME RATE FOREVER. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT OPERATION IT IS FROM OR IF THE CASE SAYS 'WINTER' IN IT ETC!!!!

IT IS THE SAME EXACT WAY IN DOTA2 AND TF2. WHY WOULD VALVE SUDDENLY STOP REVENUE TO THE COMMUNITY SKIN MAKERS IF VALVE IS STILL PROFITING OFF THE GAME ITSELF????

Yes I did and my search didn't pay of, so I decided to try it in here. With the thought that people are reasonable on this subreddit and willing to help me get answers. I understand that you are getting sick of answering this question over and over again. But you need to imagine the position I am in too. And writing your answer in all caps doesn't change a damn thing. It makes it more look like you are trying to sound mad and angry. But instead it is just annoying to read.

Btw, thanks for your answer. Even though I got the urge to punch you in the face while reading it.

It's a coincidence the drop rates haven't changed. Keep in mind different cases share different drop pools which is why breakouts for example seem to be dropping a lot right now. Breakouts share a drop pool with missions only, so if someone gets a drop from that pool it's either going to be a mission or a breakout case. Winter cases on the other hand share a drop pool with way more items.

Saying it's the same drop rate forever is a little misleading. The more community cases that are added the less likely one of them will drop. 3 years from now, if there are 10 community cases, (each with the same chance to drop) then it is less likely you will get a phoenix case from a drop.
